Notes: "In the following pages various birds are described; but I have not restricted myself to those birds whose names appear in the index, nor in point of fact to birds alone.  There are so many analogies throughout the whole animal kingdom, and so many branchlets arising from one single stem, that justice could not be done to each creature without mention of several others in connection with it."--Preface.

A few wood-engraved plates are signed "Dalziel Sc.".
